[Developer Feedback required] "Download Incomplete" still a big problem

Hello,

I have come across couple of "Download Incomplete" threads but they are somehow stopped so I am adding one more little bit more detailed so that this can be solved.

steps:
1. I have added 4 http download links
2. maximum downloads are 2 (making it 1 does not help)
3. one after the other "Download incomplete" message appears and JD displays message "Wait <seconds>" and then reconnects.
4. after few attempts it gives up even though ***every time it reconnects it can download few kilobytes*** i.e. it's not a download failure but just inability to keep download active for long time.
5. after it has given up for all the links, I add another (5th) http link . It starts downloading from that after a while gives up even for that. But it does not start the earlier four.
6. Now I delete the 5th link. Use "Resume" shortcut menu for all 4 previous links.
7. Then I add the 5th link again.
8. Now, the first two links start downloading from the point they have stopped - go to the step #1.

It looks to me that JD gives up prematurely when it should continue as long as it can download and not after predefined attempts.

I have uploaded logs at http://jdownloader.org/pastebin/69633

From the logs it looks as though it has to do something with predetermined number of attempts issue:

If that is correct, is there a configuration option that I can set to make predetermined attempt number infinite?

Thanks,

Server or connection problems might explain your issue. The automatic resume feature hasn't been implemented yet.

Can you please provide some example links that I can test myself?

Most problems with jD are caused by viruses and to a lesser degree by firewall software.

If you can download the files with your browser something is blocking jD. I recommend to :-

1) Allow java and javaw in your firewall and virus software. Disable (or un-install) the html/web download scanner in your virus software.

2) Reduce the Max.Con. setting (bottom right corner of jD window) to 1. Reset the affected links.

1. done that; no effect
2. try ANY videoweed links. note: my max speed is 20KBps. also do note for non http links it works great so speed is NOT an issue.

most importantly I wanted to know why does it give up when it can download little bit every time and if there is any configuration settings to not let it give up.

Thanks,

Without example links I can't test it myself.
